Delhi's minister for power, Harun Yusuf, said red beacons are a necessity for ministers on the move. "Our day is packed with public functions and meetings. Beacons and hooters help us move without difficulty through the traffic." But he also said the traffic police must prevent misuse of beacons as, "during the parliament attack, a car with red beacon was used by terrorists."
Revenue minister Arvinder Singh said beacons make it easy for politicians to move during emergencies. "When a building collapsed in my constituency in east Delhi, I had to rush to the spot. Normally, it would have taken me two hours but because of the red beacon and hooter I was able to reach the site in 45 minutes." However, he expressed reservations about extending the privilege. "As the transport minister, I had opposed a demand for red beacons by MLAs in the assembly."
Congress and BJP leaders seem to be on the same page on the issue. BJP state president Vijay Goel said, "I used the red beacon as per entitlement as a union minister in the NDA government. But I gave up its use once I was out of the office. It is critical to review guidelines for allocation of red and blue beacons to prevent misuse".
Mira Aggarwal, mayor of North corporation, said, "The Constitution allows mayors to use red beacons. In the recent circular, the Delhi government forgot to mention this. I have written to the government in this regard''.
However, former BJP state president Harshvardhan, said, "I feel emergencies that require such traffic clearance are extremely rare and the entitled class must realize this".
